Reception
William A. Barton reviewed Prison Planet in The Space Gamer No. 59.[1] Barton commented that "Overall, Prison Planet is a different and complete enough adventure that all referees should be able to find it useful, even if only used in part."[1]
Andy Slack reviewed Prison Planet for White Dwarf #39, giving it an overall rating of 5 out of 10, and stated that "The referee using this adventure will have to be a good storyteller to make most players enjoy the petty squalor of prison life, and will need to flesh out events and characters more than usual."[2]
